Dr.
Ranjan Joshi, the head of a pediatric critical treatment for the Coronovirus pandemic for South Australia, said, “In the first wave, children are not tested and therefore do not know much from their Covid status.
Children infected early and they are infected now.
Now We are testing them.
In both waves, they mostly do not show symptoms.
If Odisha issues a separate infection number, it’s good.
But I don’t see someone need to worry about it.
“He said the inpatient level was too less due to vaccination, but it wasn’t That means it will isolate the age group 01-8 and infect them more.
“Cross immunity (children also immune because they have received a lot of vaccines) are also not proven.
Ace2 receptors are said to have the least actions in children and therefore they do not sign viruses as easily above 18 years, also not proven,” Joshi explained.
